See you tomorrow. 20:29.810 --> 20:30.850 What's wrong? 20:38.320 --> 20:39.490 Uh, well... 20:41.240 --> 20:43.450 I, uh... 20:43.620 --> 20:48.250 My last boyfriend, and the one before that, and my first boyfriend... They were all like that. 20:48.410 --> 20:50.920 They all dumped me because I was an otaku. 20:51.080 --> 20:55.380 It's always been like that for me, so this feels so easy for me now! 20:55.550 --> 20:57.880 I don't have to hide the fact that I'm an otaku. 20:58.420 --> 21:01.880 But neither of us is the other's ideal type. 21:02.050 --> 21:06.350 We're both otaku. I'm sure we're both making some compromises. 21:07.930 --> 21:10.350 Well, you're right. 21:12.480 --> 21:17.280 I'd be lying if I said I wasn't compromising on anything. 21:18.400 --> 21:20.950 -Hey, you. Just now... -I wasn't looking. 21:21.110 --> 21:22.530 Where were you looking? 21:22.700 --> 21:25.410 Nowhere. The fact that your boobs are small is unrelated. 21:25.580 --> 21:28.580 You bastard! 21:29.790 --> 21:32.420 In other words, what are you trying to say? 21:32.580 --> 21:33.960 I meant that... 21:34.130 --> 21:38.050 I just thought that maybe you'd rather be dating a normal girl. 21:38.210 --> 21:40.510 That's all. 21:40.670 --> 21:42.760 Okay. The end! Let's go home! 21:46.300 --> 21:49.270 I'm not with you just because you're an otaku 21:49.430 --> 21:52.520 or just because it's easy. 21:54.100 --> 21:59.070 I love seeing you do the things you like. 22:02.030 --> 22:04.740 Anyway, that's how I feel. 22:04.910 --> 22:07.080 So don't think too hard about it. 22:08.120 --> 22:10.290 Hirotaka... 22:11.000 --> 22:13.000 You do like me... 22:13.160 --> 22:17.290 Oh. I take it back. I wish you would think more before you talk. 22:17.460 --> 22:20.380 But you've never said that before. 22:20.550 --> 22:21.920 What if--? 22:22.090 --> 22:26.550 Were you hung up on the fact that I said "it was a little awkward"? 22:27.220 --> 22:30.520 Of course not, idiot. Idiot. 22:44.400 --> 22:49.240 -Hey. How about going to the arcade after this? -West entrance, okay?
